Monaco Constitution

The Constitution of Monaco, established in 1962, outlines the principality's political framework. It defines Monaco as a constitutional monarchy, where the Prince holds significant powers but must also respect the rights of citizens and the governance of institutions. Key elements include the role of the National Council, which represents the citizens and legislates, and safeguards for civil liberties. This Constitution ensures a balance between the authority of the Prince and democratic principles, allowing for a stable governance structure while maintaining Monaco's unique cultural identity and historical status.
